Gems of Wisdom

Grumble, grumble, grumble

Grumble, grumble, grumble. Someone who takes himself, others, and everything else very seriously. The primary focus is on problems, always critical, frowning, angry, hurried, frustrated, and stressed. Someone who is waiting for life to get better, for things to be different. Is this you?

You had your chance to experience and explore life and its many facets – the beauty as well as the hassles. But in a way, you took it for granted. You spent your time grumbling, wishing life was different.

We all get too serious at times. Perhaps it’s human nature. Yet there is an enormous difference between someone who gets serious from time to time, and someone else who is constantly in the grumble mode. The good news is, it’s never too late to change. In fact, once you see how ridiculous it is, you can change quickly.

A grumbler will blame life for his sour attitude. He will validate his negativity by pointing to the problems and hassles that he must face. He will justify his position by pointing out the injustices of life and the flaws of others. He hasn’t a clue that his vision of life stems from his own thoughts and beliefs.

The world has become too serious. If you’re part of this sad trend, it’s time to change.

 Srila Prabhupada's Quote

Simply by chanting the Holy Name of Krsna --:

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna,Hare Hare

 Hare Rama, Hare Rama,Rama Rama,Hare Hare --

a devotee of the Lord can approach the supreme destination easily and happily, but this destination cannot be approached by any other process of religion.

 Bhagavad Gita
